Enlightened
first of all i want to say "thank you!!!" to foursevens that give us all that fantastic lights.
then here my mod:
i have modded the circuit for give more milliamps to the led, when unmodded i have read around 23ma to the led, now i read 35ma. the bad thing is that i don't understand how push more power: before start the mod i have think to reach at least 50ma to the led but seems that the circuit can't handle that power. now it drain around 220ma from the battery so also the efficiency have drop.
another mod i have do is to polish the reflector for have a higher lux reading with the loss of a bit of spill
finally i have replaced the original nichia U rank with a mine, the rank is the same but the mine have a better color, the original one was too cyan
i have compared the light against another my mod, a infinity ultra with polished reflector and a nichia U rank pushed at 60ma, the total output is for sure higher in the infinity, but the throw is about the same, 69 lux in the E0, 81 in the infinity, not bad
in the pic the beamshot with 2 exposure levels and the really simple circuit
here the polished reflector
then here my mod:
